President Donald Trump had a "long call" with his Ukrainian counterpart, Volodymyr Zelensky, on the flight back to Washington after the summit with Russian President Vladimir Putin failed to secure a cease-fire, according to White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt.

Trump also spoke with NATO leaders to brief him on the results of the Alaska meeting, Leavitt told reporters on Air Force One. The president disembarked the plane at 2:45 a.m. local time Saturday and did not respond to reporters' questions.

Also the European Commission (EC) spokeswoman confirmed the president's call to other European leaders to inform them about the outcome of his meeting with Russia's Vladimir Putin.

This telephone conversation, which involved among others EC President Ursula von der Leyen and the rulers of France, Germany and the United Kingdom, as well as NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte, lasted "a little over an hour," according to the same source.

The Ukrainian presidency stated that "it was a long call, first between presidents Zelensky and Trump, and then the European leaders joined them."
